[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people are talking about two different things here. Term of endearment vs stage of life. I still call my 11 yo “Baby” as a term of endearment, but stopped referring to her as a baby for most purposes when she became a toddler around 12 months. I wouldn’t tell someone that I “need to get home to my baby,” for example, after that point.[/quote] Yup. My daughter is 2 and I don't call her a baby anymore. Until recently, her bedtime song called her "my baby" and she interrupted me and said, "No, I'm a toddler." But I'll use Baby as a term of endearment for sure[/quote]
